This is Hyderabad's biggest defeat in IPL. In this match played at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday, the defending champions, who came to bat first after losing the toss, scored 200 runs for the loss of six wickets in 20 overs. In reply, Hyderabad was all out in just 16.4 overs. In this way, KKR once again defeated Hyderabad. Earlier, Kolkata defeated Hyderabad to win the IPL 2024 title.

Hyderabad batsmen disappointed

For Kolkata, Vaibhav Arora and Varun Chakraborty took three wickets each while Andre Russell took two wickets. Apart from this, Harshit Rana and Sunil Narine got one success each.

 

Kolkata's innings

 

Earlier, thanks to the half-century partnership of Ajinkya Rahane and Angkrish Raghuvanshi and a strong innings of 60 runs by Venkatesh Iyer, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) set a target of 201 runs in front of Sunrisers Hyderabad. For Hyderabad, Mohammed Shami, Pat Cummins, Zeeshan Ansari, Harshal Patel, and Kamindu Mendis took one wicket each.

 

After losing the toss and coming to bat first, Kolkata started with a setback. Both the openers of the team returned to the pavilion in the powerplay. Pat Cummins got Quinton de Kock (1) caught by Zeeshan Ansari. After this, Mohammed Shami made Sunil Narine (7) his victim. After this, captain Ajinkya Rahane took over the front. He shared an 81-run partnership with Angkrish Raghuvanshi for the third wicket.

 

Rahane was dismissed after scoring 38 runs in 27 balls while Raghuvanshi completed his second half-century in 32 balls. During this, he hit five fours and two sixes. After this, Venkatesh Iyer proved to be a troubleshooter for Kolkata. He scored a half-century in just 25 balls and took the team's score close to 200. He looked in great form. The vice-captain batted at a strike rate of 206.89 and was dismissed after playing an innings of 60 runs. He was caught by Aniket Verma on the third ball of the last over by Harshal Patel. At the same time, Rinku Singh remained unbeaten after scoring 32 runs while Andre Russell was run out after scoring one run.
